The Fanvets (more formally the Fantasy Veterans Association or FVA) were a group of fans headquartered in New York City who were veterans of the War. James Taurasi and Raymond Van Houten were the officers. It sponsored the Fanvet Convention and providing reading matter for overseas fans. It seems to have been formed around 1950 and died early in the 60s.

In A Wealth of Fable, Harry Warner says "The FanVets somehow survived the decade [the 1950s], despire the basic incompatibility between fandom and the armed forces. Reorganization was necessary in 1961 because, ironically, some key members had been called to active military duty."

This is a club page. Please extend it by adding information about when and where the club met, when and by whom it was founded, how long it was active, notable accomplishments, well-known members, clubzines, any conventions it ran, external links to the club's website, other club pages, etc.

When there's a floreat (Fl.), this indicates the time or times for which we have found evidence that the club existed. This is probably not going to represent the club's full lifetime, so please update it if you can!
